An Earth Day message from me because why not. And because we have to keep fighting for our planet and everything we treasure.
Apologies for the Youtube link. This year I wanna make a peertube instance as part of the fight.

Welcome to th 6th #ShelterChallenge wednesday update:
This time I write about a spontaneous informative shelter building performance at the Transition Town seedmarket and about free to lend cargobikes in Bielefeld...
I am contacting possible cooperation partners and present my masters project "Common Shelter" at local events. I reached one milestone: I successfully completed all necessary seminars at HSBI to start my last semester: From may 2026 I want to have a public shelter construction site as part of my masters project and i want to build real shelters. At the "Transition Town" Bielefeld seedmarket on march the 1st I started small:
I build a shelter model from recycled wood sticks (as shown on the image) and later put it on my info table. There was also a big Infosheet, flyers and a small 3D printed shelter model my lecturer Prof. Edith Kollath gave me as a gift. I had good talks with visitors and people working at the seedmarket that was organized by "Transition Town" Bielefeld.
"Transition Town" is a multicountry initiative for climatefriendly energy and local transformation. In Bielefeld it initiated repair cafés, community gardens and free cargobikes. At their infotable i found an interesting postcard about "Fleet Bielefeld" (in german "Flotte"):
"Free cargo and transportbikes in Bielefeld. Cargobikes, parallel tandem, riksha – the Flotte Bielefeld counts 17 bikes and one folding bike. They are free to use (donation appreciated) – use not own. The Flotte Bielefeld is a network of different cargobike projects and together working for the transformation of traffic." (my translation)
Cooperating initiatives are #ADFC, #AWO Sattelbar, Transition Town und #VCD OWL. All information on how to use and get the bikes is on https://flotte-bielefeld.de . A map with all bikes is here: https://flotte-bielefeld.de/#osm-standortkarte
One of my artistic ideas for the shelter construction site is that we together search resources for building and possibly use the free cargobikes to get them... e.g. gifted stones for the shelter legs and old pallets for the sleeping area.
See you soon!

Herzlich Willkommen zum 6. #ShelterChallenge-MittwochMittags-Update:
Heute geht es um eine spontane, informative Shelter-Bau-Performance bei einer Saatgutbörse und um kostenlose Lastenräder in Bielefeld...
Ich schreibe aktuell weitere mögliche Kooperationspartner*innen an und stelle das Master-Projekt "Common Shelter" bei thematisch passenden, örtlichen Veranstaltungen vor. Die formalen Hürden des Studium sind genommen: Ich habe alle Seminare im 2. Master-Semester bestanden und möchte ab Mai 2026 eine öffentliche Kunst-Baustelle im Rahmen meines Master-Projekt einrichten, und "echte" Shelter bauen. Bei der Saagutbörse von TransitionTown Bielefeld am Sonntag dem 1. März habe ich schonmal in klein angefangen:
Aus gutem Abfallholz, das bei einem lokalen Handwerksunternehmen als Verpackung anfällt, habe ich neben der Kinderbastelecke im historischen Saal der VHS ein Shelter-Modell für meinen kleinen Infotisch gebaut (siehe Bilder). Dazu gab es einen großen Infozettel, kleine Flyer und das von Professorin Edith Kollath 3D-gedruckte, kleine Shelter-Modell. Ich hatte einige gute Gespräche mit Besucher*innen und Aussteller*innen.
"Transition Town" ist eine in mehreren Ländern aktive Initiative, die sich für eine klimafreundliche Energiewende und insbesondere lokale Veränderungen einsetzt. In Bielefeld hat der Verein z.B. Repair-Cafés, Mitmachgärten und auch kostenlos leihbare Lastenräder mit ins Leben gerufen. Am Infostand gab es eine spannende Infopostkarte zur "Flotte Bielefeld":
"Freie Lasten- & Transporträder in Bielefeld. Ob Lastenrad, Paralleltandem oder Rikscha – die Flotte in Bielefeld zählt bereits 17 Räder und das VCD-Faltrad. Sie sind kostenlos gegen Spende ausleihbar – Nutzen statt besitzen. Die Flotte Bielefeld, die Vernetzung von verschiedenen freien Lasten- & Transportrad-Projekten, bringt ein weiteres Stück Verkehrswende auf die Straße."
Beteiligt sind ADFC, AWO Sattelbar, Transition Town und VCD OWL. Auf https://flotte-bielefeld.de gibt es alle Infos zur Nutzung der Räder. Die Standorte der Lastenräder sind hier zu sehen: https://flotte-bielefeld.de/#osm-standortkarte
Eine Idee zu meiner künstlerischen Shelter-Baustelle ist, dass wir zusammen Ressourcen für den Bau suchen und eventuell mit den Bielefelder Lastenrädern zusammentragen... z.B. geschenkte Betonplatten für die Shelter-Standbeine und ausgemusterte Paletten für die Liegefläche.
Soviel erstmal, bis Bald!

4 years ago a bought a toy from a charity shop. Thanks to this code I got it to work:
https://github.com/RogerHardiman/tenx_usb_missile_launcher alread old code!I then put it away because who knows?
This week I Discovered a spring was not working so joined a #tt #TransitionTown #RepairCafe and she fixed it! Thank you @DamonHD for telling me about the repair cafe!
Dug out the code and the notes I wrote for myself in the future (in issue tracker) and got it working as good as it was!
Free for a good home! #Hacking

#today I will be visiting a school (the one I used to be governor of) to help in due course move them away from gas heating and towards zero emissions. But all this requires today is some photos of gas boilers I think! I will also see if I can check that the solar #PV I put in is still running.
Later I will be chairing the #AGM of #TTK #TransitionTown #Kingston and there will be snacks, and drinks!
Tomorrow/Thursday will be at #uni for a #PGR/#ECR conference - I will present my #research.

Community climate hub, SERO has re-opened in new high street premises in Carmarthen, with it’s New2You children’s swap shop, repair cafe, seed library, scrapstore, library of things and lively series of events.
The hub’s aim is to make it easier to engage with climate action and which demonstrates a new kind of economy. One which values and normalises sharing and repairing above consuming, which connects people with neighbours and with lost skills.
Thanks to a Transition Together seed-funding grant supported by The National Lottery Community Fund, last year they were able to employ Siobhan as Welsh language worker to offer their activities and programmes to both Welsh and English speakers.
This weekend, they’ll celebrate St David’s Day with a bilingual crafts workshop.

Last week, we were privileged to take a journey to the future with Rob Hopkins.
He shared about his forthcoming book for the first time and had advice for activists on how to give people a window into what a positive future can look, smell, sound and taste like, as a way to inspire and engage folks with the action we need to take to build it.
Watch back the recording of this brilliant session, which ranged from the landscape of beavers to Afrofuturism, music recordings to sound out the future to how art is paving the way for us to imagine different solutions. It is an inspiring way to start your year!

Bridgehouse Gardens community group in South London has been on an incredible journey.
Together, they have transformed a disused, vacant tarmac site into a thriving forest garden and built by hand a new community learning space, The Winslade Barn. Along the way, participants have learnt amazing practical skills, built community and created space for wildlife.

As we approach the first Transition Assembly, join Transition co-founder Rob Hopkins on 15 January for a sneak peek at his forthcoming book (June 2025) “How To fall in love with the future: A Time Traveller’s Guide to Changing the World”.
He'll also share a glimpse of his 'Field Recordings from the Future' music project scheduled for release at the same time and discuss how he imagines what's next for our communities, the Transition Movement and our world, why 'Cat-Women of the Moon' might be one of the most important films ever made, and why the cultivation of longing is one of the most vital skills for us to master.
Book a ticket today, and start 2025 on a high note: https://events.transitionmovement.org/transition-together/lovethefuture/

Transition group @playthinkbrink welcomed broadcaster and activist Chris Packham for campfire tea and chat at their meantime use space in the centre of Belfast recently.
Gawain Morrison, co-founder of Brink, said: "Just as it was about to snow, we sat round our fire pit & chatted about this part of the city, the heritage growing project on the site, with our partners Grow NI & quarto, the broken food system, renewables, activism & punk bands. Not a bad way to start the morning."
The project aims to spark conversations and new thinking about how their city of Belfast can transition to a better future. Chris added a message on heritage linen to their story ring: “Winning is not giving up and the fuel is love and rage”

We're forming a Just Transition Circle, to deepen our work to put justice, equity and care for all at the centre of our work to foster community-led change.
It's the next step in our Just Transition project, and will be led by people with lived experience of being marginalised in our society and in climate and social movements. We're looking for eight people to bring a mix of voices and experiences and join us in this exploration.

What if... land, property, public spending benefited communities, supported fair jobs and shared wealth with many not just a few?

Desperate about politics as usual? We know the feeling...
Assemblies are one way that ordinary people are re-imagining how politics could be. In these times, the way we listen to one another, think creatively together and decide on our best next steps is crucial to do better.
Politics as usual deadens our ability to respond and care: new politics brings us together and uses processes that take us beyond polarisation into a deeper understanding of one another and our world.
Join us this evening at 7.30pm to hear more about how this could work where you live - and how the Transition Assembly in February could bring our movement together to re-imagine and re-create the future...
